About Bowmore

Founded over two centuries ago in 1779, Bowmore is the first recorded distillery
on Islay (pronounced ‘eye-la’) and one of the oldest in the whole of Scotland. Islay
malts are renowned for their peaty smokiness and Bowmore is no exception. We carefully
smoke our malt in a peat-fired kiln, just as our ancestors did over 200 years ago.
